Clearly, the hair, the better oxygenated, breathe better and live better! The massage also has an immediate relaxing effect (because it eases tension and relaxes the nerve endings).<\/p> <h2> <span>IS IT FOR EVERYONE?<\/span> <\/h2> <p>Yes and no. We\u00a0know it's not nice. If you're prone to having a dry scalp then yes you should do it at home. If you have an oily scalp, head to a professional for a massage. If you do it at home,\u00a0you may excite the sebaceous glands and therefore have more oily hair. And that is not the purpose of the exercise!<\/p> <p>Top tip: Before starting your self-massage, brush your hair well.<\/p> <p><em>All of the above advice comes from Karine from the Patrick Ales Salon
